What is a retaining wall?
A retaining wall is defined as a wall that has different levels of earth (soil) on either side. So one side is retaining soil. Usually, in use on lands where extra support is needed to prevent downhill erosion, the main practical purpose of these walls is to fight against gravity and protect properties from the soil being forced downhill. Also offering stunning aesthetic qualities, they are often used in residential and commercial outdoor spaces to create stunning features or for enabling the use of sloped land. Our retaining walls help you to make the most of your property!

The different styles of Retaining Walls
As your local experts, we are pleased to assist you with many different retaining wall ideas so that you can find the perfect option for your outdoor space. There are multiple styles of retaining walls that will be more or less suited to your site depending on a variety of factors such as the practical requirements of your site and your aesthetic tastes. The two most popular styles are known as a cantilever retaining wall and a gravity retaining wall. A cantilever retaining wall is built using reinforced concrete, usually with an L or inverted T-shaped foundation. This means that the stress of the weight of the soil is transferred into the foundation. Taking up little space, it is ideal for smaller spaces but less so for existing slopes. A gravity retaining wall uses its own weight to resist lateral earth pressures and is more suited to existing sloped lands.
